compiled kernel problems with ide-scsi and modversions.h
Hi
I'm having problems with the new kernel I've compiled on woody. I've
used the 2.4.8 source and patched it with xfs filesystem support, and
loopback filesystem encryption support.
It was compiled with make-kpkg.
The problems I have are:
when trying to compile the nvidia drivers it can't find 'modversions.h'.
indeed there isn't such file in my "<kernel-source>/include/linux/"
directory. do I have to add a patch or enable some feature so it will
appear?
The second problem is regarding ide-scsi. I've installed wooey from the
XFS install cd's (http://people.debian.org/~blade/XFS-Install/). it seem
that he configured the kernel with no ide-cd support. only ide-scsi. I
sometimes have problems with it (I have one regular cdrom and one ide
burner), so I've enabled ide-cdrom and added append="ide-scsi=/dev/hdd"
in '/etc/lilo.conf'. when I run 'cdrecord -scanbus' I get this output:
cdrecord: No such file or directory. Cannot open SCSI driver.
cdrecord: For possible targets try 'cdrecord -scanbus'. Make sure you
are root.

the ide-scsi module is running and the device in '/etc/lilo.conf' is
correct. any ideas?
thanx
